Not a fan of the self check in. They need someone at the front desk. It is more like a youth hostel than a hotel. The only redeeming feature is its close proximity to the Bangor.
Room was spotless and bottle of water was appreciated! Odd bathroom that looked like it was built in the middle of the room...oddly unique and it worked with the aesthetics!...only drawback was outside noise.location is perfect near station!!
The place was clean and accessible to everything you needed including train station and bus station. The breakfast was good as well but just like any other breakfast buffet, the selection does not change at all. We had a comfortable and safe stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Clean room but on the small side. The single bed was a bit low. But very quiet which was surprising as it is so close to the main station.
Great place to stay to be near the Zurich HB station - easy to get around, convenient and room is just what you need for a one or two night stay. Nothing fancy, not very big, but good location for good price.
